Changelog for 0.3.15 / 0.4.1

dclib 0.3.15

29/05/2008 Add enable UserCommand setting
29/05/2008 Add encoding to hub profile settings
02/06/2008 UserCommand always added to supports tags otherwise changing the setting on the fly will not work
02/06/2008 Add private address space check to search requests
02/06/2008 Add loopback to private address space ranges
02/06/2008 Add private address space only option
02/06/2008 Optimise CXml to/from UTF-8 functions
04/06/2008 Fix CString::Find for case insensitive search from non-zero starting position (a case not used in dclib/valknut)
04/06/2008 Add configure test for strcasestr function
04/06/2008 Optimise CString::Find when finding strings by using strstr and, if available, strcasestr - time reduced to about 1/3 of previous time
04/06/2008 Further CString::Find optimisation by setting default start to 0 instead of -1
04/06/2008 Do not load all hash leaves into memory during filelist refresh, just append new leaves to the end of the file, saving lots of memory
05/06/2008 Libtool files updated to 1.5.26 to fix a load of warnings autoconf was giving about libtool.m4
06/06/2008 Replace all Find("X") with Find('X') because it's slightly faster
06/06/2008 Significant changes to make search (and starting uploads via ADCGet/TTHF) available during filelist refresh
06/06/2008 Always also search for substrings even if an exact match is found, to fix a regression caused by folders being indexed, resulting if fewer search results being sent out.
07/06/2008 Fix memory leak on TTHL upload present since 0.3.9
07/06/2008 Fix wrong stats printed about the HashIndex on /rebuild. The HashIndex is fine, just the stats printed were wrong.
08/06/2008 Remove SetInstance(this) from constructors
08/06/2008 Remove a lot of CDownloadManager::Instance()-> from inside CDownloadManager, it's a pointer to itself (unless you have more than one CDownloadManager, which is not supported)
09/06/2008 Get rid of that "pthread_mutex_destroy" error message on valknut shutdown, which was coming from the CConnectionManager destructor.
10/06/2008 Handle short (less than 3 characters) components of search queries as best we can. A query consisting of only short components will still return no results.
10/06/2008 Process auto search results using TTH not filesize
10/06/2008 Fix invalid memory accesses by not sending objects of the wrong type to DLM_HandleSearch
12/06/2008 Fix comments in CString header, there's no sharing, implicit or otherwise
12/06/2008 Remove unnecessary copy from CString::Append()
12/06/2008 Make CString::Append() with CString or char * parameters an inline function
12/06/2008 Remove unneeded CString::Data() calls for tiny perfomance improvement
12/06/2008 Replace code like "s = s1 + s2 + s3;" with "s = s1; s += s2; s += s3;" because it's now faster due to the CString::Append() improvement
13/06/2008 Fix small memory leak from creating a CXml in a thread (during filelist refresh)
14/06/2008 Do not share files which cannot be read
14/06/2008 Re-write the userlist handling class to use std::map instead of CStringList, since in worst case scenario CStringList is 200 times slower

Update 27/06/2008 That worst case scenario would only apply if everyone on your hub had nicks starting with the same 3 characters, more likely the performance improvement is about 10 times.

31/05/2008 Move custom menu building code into DCClient, handle submenus and check hub IP/host field
31/05/2008 Remove no longer used m_nID / m_pAction from user menu command object. The same command will now appear in both hub and user menus if it has both contexts.

31/05/2008 Put all user commands into their own submenu
31/05/2008 Make DCMenuHandler static normally not weirdly

02/06/2008 Detect nick for /me lines in public chat for right click menu
03/06/2008 Make "User Commands" submenu optional
03/06/2008 Qt4: Use a QHash instead of a QMap for the search spy model, which should be faster (the ordering of the QMap was not being used)
03/06/2008 Qt4: Optimise the userlist and search spy models by using binary search instead of linear search to find the position to insert a new item at (but this made no difference according to my test)
05/06/2008 Libtool files updated to 1.5.26 to fix a load of warnings autoconf was giving about libtool.m4
06/06/2008 Set default Qt4 theme to "Mac" not "Cleanlooks" on Mac OS X (Yes this does affect the Qt3 version due to the way settings are stored)
06/06/2008 Fix crash and wrong paths on filelist browser "Add this extra source"
06/06/2008 Fix filelist save button, also fixing huge memory leak in filelist browser
06/06/2008 Adjust XML list detection to accept lists that start with a byte order mark
07/06/2008 Fix several more possible memory leaks in the filelist browser thread code
08/06/2008 Call SetInstance() with the appropriate pointer after things are created, since dclib no longer does this. Fixes Qt4 version crashing on startup if refresh share on startup is enabled.
08/06/2008 Qt4: prefer uic-qt4 moc-qt4 and lrelease-qt4 when searching for the tools to use.
09/06/2008 Allow opening of uncompressed XML filelists. Note that the filelist browser save button will save the list bzip2 compressed.
09/06/2008 Fix memory leaks in the file info dialog (right click transfer wait "File Info")
09/06/2008 Fix memory leaks in transfer list user commands and right clicking in the Files tab (the code was copied from the file info dialog)
09/06/2008 Fix memory leaks on valknut shutdown coming from the transfer lists. (Memory leaks on shutdown really don't matter, but they're reported in valgrind.)
10/06/2008 Fix memory leaks from filelist browser (Qt4: big, but only if you re-use a browser by using the Open button, Qt3: small, but always, since auto delete wasn't set on the root item's files list)
10/06/2008 Fix memory leaks on valknut shutdown coming from DCConfig.
11/06/2008 Qt3: fix broken CString/QString comparison (encoding issue) breaking the permanent slots for friends with accented charaters
11/06/2008 Remove unneeded CString::Data() calls for tiny performance improvement
12/06/2008 Very minor string building optimisation, more important when working with CString than QString
12/06/2008 Qt4: Re-write the hubs tab bar code, which was hopelessly wrong
12/06/2008 Qt4: Fix crasher bugs in the hubs tab bar code relating to the QMdiArea
13/06/2008 Add XML parser init/cleanup to program startup/shutdown, since dclib's CXml no longer does that every time a CXml is created or destroyed
14/06/2008 Qt3: replace a CStringList used to handle the userlist with a QDict, which can be up to 200 times faster (In Qt4, this was replaced with a QHash some time ago)

Update 27/06/2008 That worst case scenario would only apply if everyone on your hub had nicks starting with the same 2 characters (this could happen, if everyone had a [tag], but less likely), more likely the performance improvement is about 10 times.
